Link me to your favorites

Hey guys!

So I'm mid production on my very first full length with this melodic hardcore/ambient/For The Fallen Dream'ish kind of band.

Their music seems to call for a lot of that Sturgis type of production lots of reverse swells/build ups/glitchy stuff, etc etc.

I've done a fair share of these here and there but they are all usually the same idea. So i wanted to look for some inspiration and see if you can link me to some of your favorites.

Also, this may be too broad of a question but how do you decide when and where you wanna put these when you do? Does the band ask for it or is it usually all your idea?

2 reverse snares are more than enough on a full length album!
^^^^^
This is great advice ;p

It's the job of the producer - if you're producing as well, then you pick up the spots. Usually it calls for someone who actually knows what the fuck he's doing... ie. someone who knows what sounds good. I doubt bands would be up for it, producing isn't something you can do well just like that.
